Debris/rocks in the bike lane
Debris/rocks in the bike lane
The bike lanes on North Smith Road are crumbling and are more dangerous to use than the car lanes. It would be really nice to see an extension of the sidewalk to incorporate and combine the existing bike lanes, so the sidewalks are wider, and the vehicle lanes feel narrower, which might help reduce traffic speeds through the winding/hilly residential area and make the path feel safer to bikers and pedestrians.
There is a set of two squares of sidewalk that need fixed outside of the atlas at 3rd and college. I fell there and shattered my knee two years ago. I filed with the safety office. It still isn’t fixed. Please do something with it so no one else gets hurt there.
The bike path on the side of Arlington Ave. between 17th and North st. has some very rough sections and pot holes that hold water making navigation difficult and dangerous after a storm.
The 7th street bike lane is terrible. The curb greatly reduces bikes ability to avoid any danger in the bike lane. If a car turns into the bike lane, the biker can't avoid it due to the curb. I much prefer the old setup with bike lanes on each side of the street. I can't believe you wasted so much time and money to make a bike lane that's so much worse than before.
There is broken glass here.
Pedestrian cross-walk buttons on west side of intersection at East Third and Hillsdale/Woodscrest (northwest and southwest corners) don't work.
A hole has opened up in the paved sidewalk just east of the Meadowlands apartment complex drive along the north side of rogers road. A metal disc had been covering the hole, but the hole has widened and the cover has fallen in. I live in the Spicewood neighborhood and walk this way frequently--it could be really dangerous for a bike or child walking.
